I don't know if I agree or disagree with Siggi on this one. I think the hook
should be after the event has been deleted. An extension should
not interfere with the process of deletion. But I do see a purpose of
hooking in before the event is deleted.
It is more interesting to know if the event has been successfully deleted
and THEN hooking in with the extension.
Maybe a possibility is to add to hooks delete_event_hook and
delete_event_hook_after

Right now zeitgeist extensions have no way of knowing when events are deleted.
I propose adding a delete_event_hook() method on the Extension class that
extensions can override. The delete_event_hook() method should take an event_id
as its sole argument.
I need this functionality in the FTS extension.
